On it's way to AnglersRest.
Arrived today. Looking forward to reading this one. I have two rings in front, and one of those has 1400 pages! but should get this moving within the month.
Finished this one this morning. It was a very enjoyable read and I shall be on the look out for others in the series. I have scotsbookie's address, so this will be in the post, probably tomorrow (10th Aug).

On its way to Satnam via surface mail.
This arrived today, and just when I needed a book with a "T" title for my A to Z challenge! What good thyme-ing! (hahaha)
I really enjoyed this little cozy. Thank you spin-a-yarn for sharing and introducing me to a new series. I've mailed it today off to Vespa. I had a lot to mail so had to do it surface. Hope it doesn't take too long!
This little book made it safely back across the Atlantic. It is next on the pile to be read, so I should start it sometime this week
I really enjoyed this book. Like the others, I'm looking forward to reading more of China's adventures. Just waiting for Rillaiths address and I will get it in the post
